I delivered baby via C- section, so first few days were very difficult for me as I couldn't sit for long duration to breastfeed my baby. The hospital staff was quite helpful in guiding me the right way to breastfeed my baby. Also it was quite tiring to wake up at nights to feed my baby. But with time, as my stitches healed, the breastfeeding became easy. So the biggest challenge for me was my own body.

the initial few days were very challenging as my baby in the initial stage was not able to latch properly Bravia of small sized nipples... he would go hungry very often...i went for breast shield which was again a difficult job for us to get used to...also my baby was lacrosse intolerant so the frequency of feeds were to high. but my nurse told me to keep my hopes with regard to breast milk supply which i alerts had a doubt on

initially breastfeeding was a challenge as sore nipples, sitting posture, delicate infant, all of it was new. The top on it was sharp untamed nails of my baby. gradually each mother learns her own way of dealing with it. I went through a number of websites that tell you how to tackle these issues. I learnt that I need to develop a technique of my own. nature helps you to evolve as a mother. ☺️
